Gift Cards:

We offer two types of gift cards. 

  • Our one-month gift card covers the cost of the first Hunt A Killer box, plus shipping for your giftee. You can either send the gift card to your home address and give it to your friend/family member at a later date, OR you can send it directly to your giftee’s address. Once opened, your giftee will head to this webpage to redeem their gift. The one-month gift card can be used towards any of our three membership plans: the month-to-month plan, the six-month plan, OR the double season pass (12-month plan). Once they choose a plan, they’ll receive the first box in our Class of ‘98 storyline (a small-town high school reunion goes wrong when one of the classmates is found dead). Your friend/family member will be able to eliminate one murder suspect using all the clues that come in the first box.

  • Our six-month gift card covers the cost of one full Hunt A Killer season, plus shipping. One Hunt A Killer season or storyline, is comprised of six individual boxes that your giftee will receive in the mail each month or in 2-5 business days if they decide to expedite their boxes. Your friend/family member can redeem the gift card for either one six-month season OR use it towards the double season pass (12-month plan, or two full seasons of Hunt A Killer). The six-month gift card can’t be used for the month-to-month option. Our six-month plans now come with an awesome “Killer Cocktails” recipe booklet, and our 12-month plan comes with the “Killer Cocktails” booklet, plus two Hunt A Killer-stamped Moscow Mule mugs. Once they choose a plan, they’ll receive the first box in our Class of ‘98 storyline (a small-town high school reunion goes wrong when one of the classmates is found dead) along with their extra add-on gift. Your giftee will be able to eliminate one murder suspect using all the clues that come in the first box.
